Sandlot Brewery at Coors Field hires first female brewer in 28-year history

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 10:58:24 GMT

Abby Lundien estimates she attended at least 25 Colorado Rockies games over the years growing up in Brighton, but she had never visited the Sandlot Brewery, located inside Coors Field, until she started working for Molson Coors.Now she’s there practically every day. Lundien, 31, joined the Sandlot team as a brewer in September and notably, she’s the first woman on staff in the famed beer maker’s 28-year history.As a Colorado native, Lundien is well aware of the legacy she’s stepping into.
